Shockwave Therapy in Kleinburg
Focused Care for Persistent Pain
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that delivers controlled acoustic wave pulses to an injured or painful area. At Inklein, shockwave therapy may be incorporated into physiotherapy or chiropractic care for persistent muscle, tendon and soft-tissue conditions.
During treatment, a gel is applied to the skin before a handheld device delivers acoustic pulses to the targeted area. The intensity can be adjusted according to your condition, treatment goals and comfort. Shockwave therapy is often combined with exercise, mobility work, manual therapy or other rehabilitation techniques.
Conditions that may be considered for shockwave therapy include plantar fasciitis, heel pain, tennis elbow, jumper’s knee, chronic tendinopathy, insertional tendon pain, medial tibial stress syndrome, calcific tendon concerns and certain forms of hip pain.
Before treatment, an Inklein physiotherapist or chiropractor will assess your condition and determine whether shockwave therapy is an appropriate option. The number of sessions required varies according to the injury, its duration and your response to treatment. Some patients may notice changes within two to four appointments, while others may require a longer rehabilitation plan.
Located in Kleinburg, Inklein welcomes shockwave therapy patients from Vaughan, Woodbridge, Nobleton, King City, Bolton, Brampton and surrounding communities.
